The beer starts off like you would expect from a French lager. Pale gold color, fluffy white head, just a hint of skunk familiar with green-bottled European lagers that you get here. The taste, however, is a bit surprising. There’s still that light sweet grain, but there’s some honey and a little bit of spice, too. Just a touch of clove, maybe. The mouth feel is fuller than similar beers. Really good lacing, too. Worth a try if you want something light, refreshing, and with at least a modicum more character than anything with "light" in the name.

UPDATED: JAN 20, 2010 had a bottle of this in Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse, Wis. USA. Poured with a big foamy off white head. Sweet nose offset by some bitterness. Perhaps a touch light struck from green bottle. Color is a burnished brass. Flavor is like aroma. Nice full body. Pleasant finish.
having the Instant Pression version now, here in Avignon, France, which is slightly lower in abv than the other version. This one is a little sweeter and has a bigger head, but otherwise I suppose fairly similar.

UPDATED: APR 2, 2005 A pretty good lager, kind of like a toned down version of the K64 Blanc. Faint tastes of lemon and wine, a good palate with a very slight pleasant grittiness. The lemon and grit reminds me of pulp, kind of nice actually.

Very surprisingly great light beer. Smooth and very good palate. I guess it is like a France light beer, but it is labeled a french lager.
